anyone loose their history to go back after opening the article page? I had to double check I didn't open in external tab. browsing on firefox.

Firefox quarantines Facebook sites in a separate container (with its own cookies and browsing history, etc.), losing back button is an unfortunate side effect.

Off-topic, but does Zookeeper have features that etcd doesn't provide? etcd seems to be simpler to operate at a glance.

My understanding is that they have different consistency models and different APIs. I think etcd might be better suited for more use-cases, but I don't think migration of existing systems is straightforward.
